Action: wpwrak wants "did you mean ... ?" for platform driver/device name matching | 19:28 | |
larsc | And a Tux that pops up and ask you "It looks like you want to bind a device to a driver, do you need any help with that?" | 19:30 |
---|---|---|
wpwrak | yeah, that tux would be really handy, too | 19:33 |
wpwrak | i don't know how much time i've already wasted trying to figure out how it got that darn bureaucracy wrong this time, when it's just some stupid typo in the name | 19:33 |
wpwrak | kewl. the actual code seems to work on the first try. at least something :) | 19:34 |
larsc | I always check /sys/bus/foobar/devices and /sys/bus/foobar/drivers. If both the device and the driver are present but not bound this is usually a good indication that the strings don't match | 19:35 |
wpwrak | hmm, didn't even see my driver show up in devices/ until i fixed that typo | 19:38 |
wpwrak | kewl. driver works like a charm. almost suspiciously well :) | 19:43 |
wpwrak | hmm, interesting highway intersection: https://maps.google.com/?ll=-34.784342,-58.522947&spn=0.014839,0.032809&t=h&z=16 | 20:33 |
wpwrak | looks quite regular, but has interesting features. e.g. if coming from the south, making a right turns seems to be a bit of an adventure. you probably need a gps to get back on track when you miss the right path on the trifurcation | 20:34 |
wpwrak | the 2nd chance when coming from the southeast and wanting to go west is also cute | 20:35 |
kristianpaul | cute indeed :) | 21:37 |
kristianpaul | i wonder if you could get in a loop on it | 21:39 |
larsc | you can stay on the middle loop forever | 21:44 |
wpwrak | yeah, but that's very common | 21:49 |
wpwrak | i should add that signposting around here is usually poorly done and more confusing than helpful. so i'm pretty sure a lot of people who don't know the exit will end up in the wrong branch on that multiple-choice right turn. | 21:52 |
